Need To Block Domain

[boxturt]

As the title says - I need to block a domain (not mine) that is parked ontop of one of my subdomains. The offender has been asked to remove the forward and place a simple link on his website.

 

There isn't one, so all traffic is coming from the registrar. I've tried a few things to block but nothing is working. Every time I type evilsite.com it still goes to my sub.

 

Even tried this (but I probably wrote it wrong:

 

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^http://(www\.)?evilsite\.com

RewriteRule .* - [F]

 

Help please?

 

Thanks

Nevermind. Seems they have finally honored my wishes.

 

For now....................

 

This info would still be good to know though

Hi,

 

I think it would be HTTP_HOST not HTTP_REFERER, other than that you look correct

>RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?evilsite\.com [NC]
RewriteRule . - [F]

 

Or, if you prefer to send them to a reject file...

 

>RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?evilsite\.com [NC]
RewriteRule . pathto/reject.htm [L]

You could try going to the registrar who is forwarding it and explaining to them that you own the main site and don't approve of the redirect. It may work.

 

I think Andy's reject file would be great opportunity to have some fun with them though.

Ah ha! host not referer, dur me, got it - thank you Andy

 

 

And I always liked the way the word 'reject' just sorta rolls off the tongue

Seems to roll off my wifes tongue quite often.
